It was the number 1 seed in both the men’s and women’s draw that lifted the trophy in the FIP Rise in Doha. Among the men, the title went to Egyptian Youssef Hossam and Argentinean Julian Lacamoire, thanks to their 6-0 6-3 success in the final over Joel Fernandez and Borja Trujillo.

This is the fourth title for us this year and I can only be proud of our team”. “We have gone from strength to strength, we are happy with our performance and our maturity in difficult moments – said Lacamoire –. Thanks to everyone who helps us to achieve these results”.

On the other hand, British Catherine Rose and Aimee Gibson won the women’s tournament, thanks to a 6-0 6-3 win over the number 4 seed, Ainize Santamaria and Natalia Molinilla. “This is my first title on the CUPRA FIP Tour and for that I want to thank Aimee who has been by my side. I loved every moment on court”.
